Yet another balloon launching from the Riverside Barr & Grill .
I'm starting to think I have enough footage of this place to start a series .

i like this alot! you should try taking it into photo shop and messing with the color balance and contrasting.

@jennifer: Thanks...hmmm , well I was happy with the way the flame illuminated the colors from inside. Didn't want to brighten it to much as I thought that effect would fade .

I somewhat agree with Jennifer.. I'd think a touch of the sharpness control might help.. but the colors are great..

Why didn't you go on the ride?

@greg: Wait a second, it's sharp enough to see the wrinkles in the balloon, just the people are out of focus lol .

As for the ride, well he was contracted by the people in the basket, I just happened to be having a few drinks on the deck of the bar when this was all going on, come to think of it the drinks might explain the fuzziness !
